"A Little Bit of Luck" is a song by English UK garage duo DJ Luck & MC Neat. The song contains samples of "Unity", a 1991 breakbeat hardcore track by Timebase featuring Kromozone, interpolated vocals from Yami Bolo's "When a Man in Love", and uses the drums from an earlier garage track, "Hyperfunk" by Antonio.[citation needed] The song reached the top 10 on the UK Singles Chart, peaking at number nine. It was the first of three consecutive top-10 hit singles for the duo.

In September 2019, NME included the song in their "25 essential UK garage anthems" list.[2] Capital Xtra included the song in their list of "The Best Old-School Garage Anthems of All Time".[3] In 2018, the House & Garage Orchestra together with MC Neat recorded an orchestral version for the UK garage covers album Garage Classics.
